Split Folding Rear Seat
The rear seatbacks can be folded forward to
provide an additional storage area.
Extending the right side of the trunk allows you to
carry two passengers on the left part of the rear
seat, while extending the left side allows you to
carry one passenger.
Center Backrest Section Tilting
The center backrest can be tilted forward for a
“Ski Pass-Through” feature from the trunk.
Before tilting the backrest, make sure that the
rear center seat belt is not fastened and that
there are not any objects in the middle part of the
cushion.
Using the release strap, release the center part of
the backrest from its housing and tilt it using the
head restraint.
Center Backrest Section Tilting
Center Backrest Section Repositioning
Using the head restraint, lift the center portion
upwards, accompanying it during its movement,
and lightly push to make sure that it is properly
attached. Make sure that the armrest is properly
attached by attempting to move it. If it is not
attached, repeat the operation.
To Lower Rear Seat
Either side of the rear seat can be lowered to
allow for extended cargo space and still maintain
some rear seating room.
NOTE:
Be sure that the front seats are fully upright and
positioned forward. This will allow the rear seat -
back to fold down easily.
1. Completely lower the rear seat head
restraints

2. Place the seat belt so that it doesn't impede
the movement of the backrest while tilting it.
3. From inside the luggage compartment,
operate lever 1 to tilt the left part or lever 2 to
tilt the right part of the backrest: it will auto -
matically tilt forward. If necessary, assist the
backrest during the initial stage of tilting.
Seat Release Levers
NOTE:
You may experience deformation in the seat
cushion from the seat belt buckles if the seats
are left folded for an extended period of time.
This is normal and by simply unfolding the seats
to the open position, over time the seat cushion
will return to its normal shape.
To Raise Rear Seat
Raise the rear seatback and lock it into place. If
interference from the cargo area prevents the
seatback from fully locking, you will have difficulty
returning the seat to its proper position.
NOTE:
Make sure the seat belts are in the front of the
seatback, and that they are not twisted, or
trapped behind the seatbacks.
